It is 3:37 am, August 11, 2010. I was exhausted and running on a excited energy buzz. Bella was asleep on the bed with monotors beeping and a drip set up beside her. She had given birth by c-section to three beautiful babies just two hours ago. I stood over her and watched her breath easly. Something she hadn't been able to do in three months.

I stroked her cheek with the back of my finger and set out for the nursery. I stood at the window and watched them sleep then ever so lightly tapped on the glass to get the nurses attention. She pointed to her wrist and I held mine up, showing the three ID bracletts confirming that the three were mine. She smiled and nodded and opened the door for me.

"They all just fell asleep." She told me and I walked over to stand behind them.

The baby on the left was Evan Parker. First born. In the middle, Eden Pace, born second. On the right was my little princess Ella Rose.

Ella started to fuss so I tried to see if I could hear her. She was scared she was alone. She didn't like not being able to touch her brothers. I picked her up and set her in the crib with Evan and she calmed imeditly. Eden started to fuss as well. I wedged them all in the same small crib and thanked the lord I would be able to know what they wanted. This would make it a whole lot easier.

"Mr. Cullen." The nurse touched my arm lightly. "Bella is awake and she requests to see the babies." She smiled slightly.

"Thank you." I smiled back and rolled the tripplets into her room.

Bella gave me a "What the crap" look and I laughed. "They like being close together." She laughed and shook her head as I placed the crib at her side. She looked over the edge and smiled.

"They're so tiny." She reached out for Ella and swaddled her to her chest. "I don't want to break them."

"You won't break them, love." I kissed her head. "Alice, Rose, Emmett, Jasper and Kale came to see you and the babies. You were asleep so they said they would just see you when you came home."

She nodded and went back to stroking Ella's cheek with the tip of her finger. Ella twitched a smile. "She know's who you are." I told her.

I had told Bella I could read minds when I started hearing the trips in the womb. It was very weird for me to be able to hear them but I loved it none the less. Bella had shrugged her shoulders and said. "Just another thing about you to love." And smiled.

"Does she know who you are?" She asked.

"I'm not sure. I would think so."

~*~Bella pov~*~

A smile spread across Edward face as he concentraded on Ella. "Yeah. She knows my voice. She knows who I am."

I smiled. "What about Evan and Eden? Do they?"

"Yes." He smiled. "And I think...." He pondered for a moment staring at Ella and she opened her eyes. "Woah."

"Woah? What 'Woah'?"

"Hang on." He looked over at Eden and Evan untill their eyes opened too. "Wow." He whispered picking them up.

"Mind telling me?" I asked.

"I was trying to see if they could hear me like I could hear them. I focused on Baby Ella and asked her to wake up and open her eyes and she did. Same with the boys."

"So..." I cocked my head to the side. "So they can read minds too?"

"I think so. Try telling Ella with your mind." He told me.

I focused on my only daughter and tried to leek into her mind. 'Hi baby. It's Mommy. Your special baby. Just like Daddy. Can you smile for Mommy? Smile for me again Baby Ella.'

Her mouth twitched a small smile for half a second again. "She can." I gasped. "I asked her to smile and she did." I lifted her up to me cheek and placed mine against hers. My Baby Ella Rose.

"You're depriving your boys over here." Edward laughed.

I set her down in my lap and took the boys from his arms as he picked up Ella. "Sorry, babies." I told them.

"I was talking about me, too." Edward laughed.

"Sorry, big baby." I laughed as he bent down for a kiss.

I looked back down at my sleeping boys. They looked nothing like Ella. They looked like Edward's new born pictures. Ella looked like my baby pictures. I smiled up at Edward and he smiled back.

"They look like you." I looked back down at Eden and Evan. "The boys. They are going to be your carbon copies and Ella is going to be mine." I laughed. "You can't even tell the boys belong to me. And you can't tell Ella belongs to you. Except when she smiles." I smiled. "The boys' hair is your color and their eyes are your green. Ella's hair is brown and so are her eyes."

"Her cheeks are even the same flushed pink as yours." Edward sat down on the edge of the bed with Ella content in his arms. "She has your nose."

I smiled. "See. She looks nothing like you." I laughed.

~*~*~2 Days Later~*~*~

Edward pov

I was carrying the boys carriers while Bella held Ella's and unlocked the door. Alice and Rose had hidden their cars very well.

"Surprise!" Alice with Kale on her hip, Jasper, Rose, Emmett, James, and Mitchell were standing in the entry way.

Bella gasped and smiled. "Oh my god!" She ran to hug them all, not bothering to put Ella down.
"What are you all doing here?" She set Ella's carrier on the table and unbuckled her. She picked her up and cradled her in her arms.

"We came to see the darlings and drop this off." James smiled and Mitchell picked up a canvas. Cullen was painted on in the front in dark brown written in a very elegant script. An olive green was pin striped in. It matched out living room.

"Oh, my God. Mitchell, did you do that?" Bella gasped.

"I wish." He laughed. "James did it."

"But it was Mitchell's idea. Colors and all." James butted in.

"It's beautiful guys." She hugged them both.

I set Evan and Eden's carriers on the table beside Ella's and unbuckled them. Emmett came over and picked up Eden and I got out Evan.

"Look, Babe." Emmett smiled. "I gotta' baby."

Rose laughed and came over to stand beside him looking at Eden. "He's so cute." Rose smiled.

"Can we swoon over the babies adorable looks after?" Alice asked.

"Oh, yeah." Rose laughed. "Come on guys." Bella and I followed Alice and Rose while the guys trailed behind us.

"Okay. This is Eden's room, clearly." She pointed to the handpainted sign that hung on the door. She opened the door and stepped aside for Bella and I to walk in.

"Oh, my God." Bella gasped. "You did all this?" She asked.

"With the help of our husbands and your friends." Rose smiled.

"Come check out Evan's." Alice told us as I laid Eden in his crib.

"Evan's room." Rose smiled and opened the door.

"This too?" Bella's voice cracked it went so high.

"I think you're going to love Ella's the best." Alice smiled. Emmett passed Evan to me so I could lay him down.

Ella's room had double doors. They had replace the orignal for closet doubles. "Baby/Princess Ella's room." Alice smiled and pushed the doors open.

Bella gasped and covered her mouth careful to pull Ella completely to her with her other arm.

"Alice. Rose. This is so cute and beautiful." She smiled and unwillingly laid Ella down and gave them both a hug. "No one, has better friends than I do." She smiled at them.

"Come on, Love." I kissed her head. "Let's go have some time with your friends while they are asleep."

~*~*~A Few Hours Later~*~*~

Bella was sitting on the couch with Ella in her arms. She was holding the bottle and leaning down to kiss her head every other second. My two girls.

Evan was asleep in the play pin in the living room beside Eden. They didn't like to sleep alone just yet. I came in and sat beside Bella and she smiled at me. "Hi." She leaned in for a chaste kiss.

"Hello." I smiled.

"I still can't believe they are here." Bella shook her head.

"I know." I flung my arm behind Bella on the back of the couch and rested my head in my hand the rested on the other side. I sat there staring at them. Bella smiling down at Ella and Ella's brown eyes wondering around looking for Bella. Their eye sight wouldn't be completly clear for a couple more weeks, but it still didn't keep her from trying.

"She's trying to figure out where you are." I told Bella. "She can hear you, but everything is all fuzzy to her."

Bella bent down and nuzzled her nose to Ella's fourhead. "I got you." She whispered.

I laughed. "She was wondering who it was."

Bella smiled. "It's me. It's Mommy." She kissed her head.

"She says hi." I laughed.

"Hi, Baby." Bella laughed.

"She is wondering where her brothers are." I told her.

"They're fine. They are sleeping on the other side of Daddy." She told her.

"She wants to sleep too now."

Bella sat her up and put her on her shoulder. Ella's face was turned toward me. I took my tumb and index friger and rubbed circles on her pink cheeks. One she burped, Bella laid her down next to Evan and Eden and she fell asleep quickly.

Bella stood over the pin and smiled down at them. "They are going to very protective of her. Even though they are tripplets, she's still the youngest."

"Our little miricals." I laid a hand on the small of Bella's back. "Why don't we lie down while we can." I suggested.

She pulled a light blanket up over them and laid down in my arms. "I fit." She laughed.

"You will always fit in my arms, Love." I chuckled.

She reached her head up and kissed me, then snuggled back down in my side. Her breathing became slow and even and I knew she was asleep. I laid there and listened to my lives breathing.

They all came into my life and took it by storm, one by one. Bella, Evan, Eden, and my little Ella.

All my lives. I smiled and driffted to sleep myself.
